Personally, I think that the wearing of poppies has reached ridiculous levels, particularly on the news media. To extend this poppy type fascism, to the football field only entrenches our attitudes to war and the slaughter of millions.
I find the Government's hypocrisy staggering, trooping out those royal parasites year after year, if they really cared two hoots about the injured dead and dying, they would not send our boys to fight wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Ireland the Malvinas, Korea Israel Jordan and a few dozen more.
As the great man said: Hypocrites are these your pranks, tae murder men, an gie God thanks.
